Thanks a lot for working on reproducible builds!

I was going to apply the proposed patch and upload to experimental,
but it doesn't seem to have been sent upstream yet:

  https://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&component=Glib&list_id=14023&product=gnome-perl

Is that an oversight? Do you plan to forward this patch upstream?

Cheers,
